I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 73 Personal Requirements

The general prison is the place Zhao Xi has long wanted to come to.It's a pity that because of my young age, I couldn't go out of the palace. Unexpectedly, this time I lived twice and did it again.

"Wu Jing Zong Yao" was edited and compiled by Zeng Gongliang, the school manager of Jixian Pavilion, under the command of Zeng Gongliang in the past few years. Every time a new volume is added, Zhao Xi can see it from the books of Ciming Palace.Therefore, he has also seen the formula for gunpowder.

This is not the future, in which chemicals can be seen everywhere, and Zhao Xi can make quite powerful explosives at will, but at this time, the lack of materials restricts many things he wants to do.Of course, age is also a limitation.

Now, when it comes to being a prisoner... Zhao Xi still has to hold back.Age is still a limit.

At this time, if he said that he was going to the gunpowder workshop of the prison, the whole guard of honor would turn to the inner garden without hesitation, even the old Chen Lin who had been accommodating him would not agree.

That thing is also a very dangerous job for craftsmen at this time.

"My lord, what is the purpose of being a prisoner?"

It's coming, but Chen Lin still has to ask clearly.

"Where is... that workshop for making small ironware?"

"The old slave will pass here."

Chen Lin also breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the prince would have other troublesome requests.

They said that it was over, but they wandered around for a long time, and it didn't even feel shorter than the time they returned from outside the city.

It was only then that Zhao Xi realized that this large film was actually made of generals.

The supervisor is divided into five cases, 27 workshops, and ten warehouses. This is almost a large state-owned factory.It just covers too much, and when it comes to each workshop, there are only two or three courtyards.

Ironware can be regarded as a relatively large workshop for Jiang Zuojian. Whether it is from swords, guns, swords and halberds, or armor, they all come from ironware workshops.

Before entering the workshop, Zhao Xi could already feel the heat wave.

Zhao Xi was carrying the scorching heat, dripping with sweat... This is really not a show, he has to draw the shape of the horseshoe, and he wants to see how to make a sample, and teach the priests how to use it...

But what he thought should be done touched the master craftsmen in the workshop.

To tell the truth, Shangguans would sometimes come to the workshop, mostly to stroll around the workshop and warehouse.And the prince, with such a precious body, actually stayed in this hot and stuffy workshop just like them.

"Master, if possible, try to prepare some water for the craftsmen..."

For a while, Zhao Xi's whole body was already wet. These people who have been working here for a long time... looked thin, obviously showing signs of electrolyte imbalance.

"My lord, there are! Always have them."

Zhao Xi wasn't sure if he didn't make it clear, or if he really had the knowledge to supplement sugar and salt water in this era.

It is indeed prepared, or warm water.Zhao Xi took a sip...it was nothing more than a cool drink.

"Master, what Xiao Wang means is to ask you to add some icing sugar and green salt when boiling water. As for the proportion... the taste should be suitable."

Zhao Xi really wanted to say 5.00%... I think it would be even more dizzy if he said it. The problem is that he couldn't figure out how to mix the 5.00%. He only remembered that it was mixed according to the taste.

At this stall, the horseshoe is ready.I have to say that at this time the craftsmanship of the craftsmen really has nothing to say.

Looking at such a product, I am reluctant to hang it on the horseshoe, as it is close to a handicraft.That is, the prince wants samples...

The horse herders are not fools, they are all experts in raising horses, and the moment they see the horseshoe.Already know the usefulness of this thing.

"My lord, I'll pass the paperwork to the Zhengshitang now... Do you need to save some war horses for your lord's use?"

This... is really official style.When Zhao Xi heard this, he felt a little familiar.

That's right, I was so enthusiastic about war horses that I even endured the heat wave, just for this horseshoe.I think I'm also a horse lover...

"This king doesn't need it, how to distribute it, I'd better ask all the ministers in the Political Affairs Hall to discuss it."

Zhao Xi was really afraid that he would tell him about allocating the horses again, so he directly blocked him.

He is now thinking of getting the horse herdsman to leave as soon as possible. He is much more interested in being a supervisor than the horse herdsman.

It's a pity that this grandson doesn't seem to be afraid of the heat, so he is still waiting...

"My lord has already settled the horseshoe issue with Ru Majian. Could it be that there are still unresolved matters?"

It's old Chen Lin who is used to serving people and understands people's hearts very well.It doesn't look like that idiot Wang Zhongzheng, he just looks at it stupidly.

"My lord, please move to the hall."

The horse herd supervisor left, and the general supervisor also knew that the child prince was probably going to make some gadgets.

This is normal.The princes of the court often ask the general supervisor to do some weird things, just to coax the children to have fun.

Even workshop craftsmen make gadgets in private.

Zhao Xi doesn't want to be a gadget.He remembered that in the firearms class at the command school, the teacher had casually mentioned the flintlock...

Because his hometown is a mountainous area, he paid special attention to the structure of the flintlock.

I just don't know if today's craftsmen can make it...

"Master, is there a coppersmith in the prison?"

Zhao Xi still knew that at this time, he would definitely not be able to make steel pipes.But cast copper seems to have existed since ancient times.

"Yes, the old man was originally born as a coppersmith."

"Do you know how to deal with trachoma?"

When Zhao Xi asked this, Master was taken aback for a moment...

"My lord, trachoma... I'm sorry for the old man's helplessness. The old man promises that no one in the world can deal with trachoma."

"Master, don't misunderstand. Xiao Wang knows that trachoma is inevitable...but, forget it. Xiao Wang has a sub-map, and the master can try to make it."

Zhao Xi got ready a long time ago, and took out his crooked drawing of a flintlock pistol from his cloth bag...

The master saw it and understood it, but this... the royal family is the royal family, and the prince's toys are also so precious.

This is not a random gadget. It is not only a matter of materials, but also a matter of exhaustion and effort by master craftsmen.

Although he doesn't know what this is called, he can understand the difficulty of this thing.

Unable to say, I just looked at the painting and twitched my mouth.

"Master, don't say anything about this thing, and don't use public funds. Xiao Wang will send someone to spend it. I hope the master will take care of it."

Zhao Xi really doesn't have the airs of a prince, and the officials are also like this, so it didn't surprise everyone.As for not allowing foreign words, this is reasonable, after all, it is a child's toy, so disturbing will be used as a prison, if there are rumors, I am afraid that Yushitai has something to do.

It's over, it's already late, Zhao Xi should go back.

Zhao Xi looked at old Chen Lin... This old boy squinted and smiled, it seems that he should know how to hide, and also know how to look at this big craftsman.

The efficiency of the horse herding supervisor is very high. When Zhao Xi returned to the inner garden, even the queen heard about the horseshoes... Xi'er is like this. The problem that the cavalry of the past dynasties has no solution, Xi'er goes out for a circle. Church's praise.

In fact, if Daxia hadn't blocked the commercial routes in the Western Regions, the horseshoe story should have spread to the Central Plains long ago.

It's just that Zhao Xi has never figured out why Daxia, which mainly uses war horses and is located in the northwest, also doesn't know about horseshoes.
